In spite of rapid economic growth since the
end of the civil war, most of Mozambique's population is employed in
subsistence agriculture. The government depends heavily on official development
assistance, which finances about one-fifth of GDP. The country has an excellent
tourism potential, owing in part to its geographical closeness to Johannesburg.
Food for Thought
A nascent
private sector, far too few qualified faculty members, marginal primary and secondary
preparation, and historical ambivalence - or even antagonism - between higher education
and the private sector all serve to exacerbate the legacy of insufficient financial
investment in graduate management education activities.
